With the aspiring season of warmth moving into the northern hemisphere’s midst it is time to peel away the layering style of colder times and settle into something a little more vibrant. With winter declaring its dominance so persistently in the last few months it almost seems inconsequential not to celebrate the skinlessness and brilliance that comes with summer clothing.

This swimwear shoot by Michael David Adams is a true declaration to the glamorous and simply gorgeous swimwear fashion that women are able to indulge in. Limited by nothing this shoot reveals all the colours, patterns, designs, details and materials that can be used when planning your summer swimwear. Stylist, Don West, makes impressive use of summer accessories; indicating the stylistic variation that can be applied when adding to (or taking away from) swim outfits. Chunky cuffs and necklaces add heavy detail to the slender portrait of Gizele Oliveira, as well as neon colours contrasting with olive skin.
